[QUOTE="keep_hope_alive, post: 8291683, member: 576029"] where are the crossovers mounted? speakers shouldn't make noise when you move them because the system shouldn't be on when making changes. i commonly see issues with passive crossovers and they will behave like this. it can be from corrosion from getting wet (such as inside doors) or poor solder connections or heat or cold, etc. Passive crossovers are very sensitive to the environment and should be mounted next to the amplifier or inside the cabin in a safe, dry, place. doing so requires running extra wire so installers typically put them next to the speakers inside the door. over time, water in the door causes corrosion (everytime it rains the inside of the door is wet) crossovers will also fail from too much power. the tweeter protection circuit will engage from too much power or from a slight short due to water/moisture/corrosion.
